Design Evolution

The PWS MK118 Upper is an advanced design MK1 upper from Primary Weapons Systems. The MK1 upper combines the long term reliability of the AK-47 with the operator friendly flexibility of the AR platform. The result is a long stroke piston upper that has an amazing service life with greater reliability and less opportunity for individual parts failure than most AR Upper on the market. The secret is the union of the Bolt Carrier Group and free-floating piston head. A simple operating rod joins the two pieces, creating a single operating unit that is far easier to maintain than impingement systems. It requires far less attention in the field because it is not as susceptible to the effects of fouling than traditional AR Uppers.

Next Gen Features

If you’re ready to take full advantage of the evolution of modern weaponry, you need to get your hands on a PWS MK118 Upper. Like the rest of PWS’ awesome MK1 MOD 2 line, the MK118 features FNC LIFE HD surface treatments, integrated Quick Disconnect Mounts, Picatinny upper rails and the ultra-flexible PicMOD® rail which provides a functional accessory mounting surface for both Picatinny and KeyMOD Accessories. Gas management is enhanced by a simple three position selector that helps provide optimum pressure with whatever ammunition you choose.

Lightweight Forged Uppers

The MK1 Mod 2 Upper is a forged upper with a difference. Primary Weapons Systems doesn’t forge it and forget it. This Upper is forged and then precision machined to remove excess material, creating a sleeker, lighter upper that retains the incredible strength of a forged upper. The reliability of the long piston upper allows PWS to further reduce mass by dropping the forward assist altogether for a more streamlined silhouette.
